This is Black H2O Stout infused with blackberries.

Color is black with a tan head. Nice retention with some lace.

This beer is an interesting mix of tartness and roast. It has the blackberries up front with provide a very tart, almost sour flavor and then the stout flavors kick in with a lot of roasted malts. Some coffee and chocolate flavors. A bit of caramel. The blackberries are very fresh.

Mouthfeel: Tart and roasted. Medium bodied with a good amount of carbonation.

Overall, I think the blackberries were an odd choice for this beer. The tartness and the roast didn't go together very well. It was a very odd infusion.
